As everyone says,good luck. Will keep everything crossed. If my phone interview was anything to go by then it will be informal,more like a chat

Great news - another step forward - hope everything goes well

Don't worry, the interview will probably be just a formality
My OH's 'interview' was them basically just them telling her about the hospital & offering her the job, not much questioning at all.
If Christchurch Hospital is anything like the Hospital where my OH works people are leaving in droves at the moment & they are desparate for new staff anyway.

Good luck

Thanks guys will keep you posted only 30mins away from phone call now

You should be mid phone call now! If it's anything like mine it was at this point my phone battery went and for the last 15minutes of the call I had very offputting beeps every minute. Hope it all went well.

Just a quick update interview went well, they have to contact 1 of hubbys references as a matter of protocall, but will let us know within the week if he has the job. *fingers crosed*

Also during the interview they gave him an email adddress of another male british nurse who had made the move to Christchurch with his wife and children who are the similar age as ours, 2 years ago......so they could answer any questions we had about settling in over there and giving us the lowdown on schools and areas to live ........is this the norm as we both was surprised at this, thought that is was a bit weird but at the same time looked at it as a postive, that maybe he has a good chance of being offered the job.

so we have to wait a whole week worrying, being scared and excited all at the same time at the prospect of our dream becoming a reality!!!!!

Would say all sounds positive. I think that is is a plus that they gave you the contact of someone who has been there,done it so to speak. I would have liked to have that when I got the job offer. At least you will be able to get a good perspective of what it is really like from someone in similar circumstances,especially re other things like schools,areas to live etc. Get ready for that reality bolt to hit you hard

Have to say, if they are contacting referees, then all points to being positive... still keeping pinkies crossed though for you...
